Temple Brings Booklet Binding In-house
As a city in-plant, Temple Digital Document Services has some unique characteristics. Its Xerox iGen4 is on the 10th floor of Temple's Wachman Hall, while other equipment, including some bindery gear, is in another building a block away.
Fortunately there was room on the 10th floor to install the Duplo near the iGen4. One operator runs both machines. But since the shop wasn't able to afford the Duplo SCC (slitter/cutter/creaser) unit for trimming the 12x18˝ sheets coming off the iGen4 down to 11x17˝, sheets still have to be trimmed on an offline Procut 26.5 cutter. This means employees have to cart pages down the elevator and up the street to where the cutter is located, then bring them back up 10 floors to the Duplo 150.
